Solve 300*80%-x=60

$$300 \times 80 \% - x = 60$$

Solve for x

$$x=180$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{80}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 20.

$$300\times \frac{4}{5}-x=60$$

Express 300\times \frac{4}{5} as a single fraction.

$$\frac{300\times 4}{5}-x=60$$

Multiply 300 and 4 to get 1200.

$$\frac{1200}{5}-x=60$$

Divide 1200 by 5 to get 240.

$$240-x=60$$

Subtract 240 from both sides.

$$-x=60-240$$

Subtract 240 from 60 to get -180.

$$-x=-180$$

Multiply both sides by -1.

$$x=180$$
